Summary

An exceptionally clean example of the highly sought-after Van Gogh Pikachu promo. The front is practically flawless with excellent centering, while a minor centering bias and a microscopic edge speck on the back hold it back from absolute perfection.

ROI

PSA is slightly more lenient on centering (allowing up to 60/40 on the front for a GEM MINT 10) and minor back flaws. Given the card's overall pristine front presentation, it has a very strong chance of achieving a PSA 10, which carries a significant premium for this promo.
